Avenge For Love novel Chapter 72

"I remember searching the mountain for your body. No one else dared to come along.

By the time I found your body, it was already frozen from the snow. Before bringing it back to be buried, I had a shaman examine your body. She discovered that your soul had gone back to the past to change your unfortunate fate. With her help, I found out what year you went back to and...." He trailed off and gazed at her.

Seeing the heartache in his eyes, Wu Xingxie felt something tearing her heart out. She never thought about what happened after returning back but he had done all that?

The mountain she fell off was known to be hazardous, and anyone who fell off would no longer be found. No one dared to go near the mountain for there were rumors of evil spirits.

For him to search the mountain and find her body, just how much did she mean to him?

"I used the same spell you used." He admitted truthfully. He no longer wanted to hide anything from her.

"I realized I could never love anyone else if it's not you. Call me selfish but I wanted to see you again."

It felt like she was being tortured listening to his words. Not in a bad way, but she grasped that he was the only one who remembered her.

As expected, her pretentious family didn't even bother to investigate her death.

It was him, Hu Jiayi who cared about her even after she was no longer breathing.

Wu Xingxie hugged herself, body trembling. Tears cascaded from her eyes as she cried out loud. She hadn't cried this hard since Wu Xuan's death in her life before.

Hu Jiayi silently watched her cry and stretched his arms out. Gently, he pulled her into an embrace. He felt bad since it was partially his fault she was crying.

"I'm here for you. This time, I'll be here whenever you need me. I won't let you get hurt." He rubbed her back, slowly comforting her. He didn't know she could be she so emotional.

So it turns out, she's actually sentimental.

Hu Jiayi thought and smiled because now, he was a step closer to her. He planned something for her, but he didn't think she was going to cast a powerful barrier to protect her chambers. If he hadn't stop her in time, who knows what would've happened.

The familiar sobbing of a girl filled Yuyan's ears as she slowly opened her eyes. Knowing the voice, she shot up from where she once lain. Quickly turning her head, Yuyan's eyes widened at the sight she came upon.

Her Eldest Miss in the arms of an unknown man, bawling her eyes out. The man remained wordless as he rubbed her back, soothing her.

An indescribable feeling in her heart caused her to frown. Multiple inquiries entered her mind as Yuyan wondered who this man was.

She wanted to say something to get their attention, but seeing as both didn't notice her yet, Yuyan kept her words.

She knew he liked her, but if that was the only reason then he was truly blinded by love.

For someone who he didn't even know, can you really call it real love?

"I did it because I really liked you since the day you saved me, but it was also for indemnification. I never had the chance to repay you so giving you a proper burial was the only thing I could do for failing to save you."

Hu Jiayi's words were sincere. He had no other intentions for finding her body other than to bury it. However, when he found her, he sensed the deep hatred in her heart required for the spell. Her animus towards the people who wronged her, he felt them all.

Of course, he kept this part out because it would only arouse unneeded and negative emotions.

"Thank you but I never wanted to be repaid. When I saved you, I was an ingenuous girl. Today, I am no longer the same as I was back then." The indifference of her words were clear, but Hu Jiayi wasn't convinced she meant them.

"I know that you have been hurt and want revenge, but think about it. The people you care for are alive. What will you gain from killing the people who wronged you? Aren't you scared the cycle of revenge will come back to you?" He had been wanting to ask her this since his return but was afraid of earning her dislike. Since she now knew about his situation, there was no need to be afraid.

"I'm not frightened. If their descendants want to curse me, then let them. I want them to know what it feels to lose their loved ones, their status and reputation!" Vindictively, Wu Xingxie clenched her fists. She knew the consequences of her actions. So whatever happened, she would bear them alone.

"Hu Jiayi, I'm telling you, if you care for me, stay out of my life." She warned the male coldly. It was not her intentions to be rude or anything. She was grateful for what he did, but this time, they had nothing to do with each other.
